5 PERIPHERAL CIRCUITS AND THEIR OPERATION (LCD Driver)

5.11.3 Frame frequency

This LCD driver allows selection of the source clock
for generating the frame signal from the OSC1
oscillation clock (f

OSC1

) and the programmable

timer 5 underflow signal. By using programmable
timer 5, flexible frame frequencies can be
programmed. Refer to Section 5.10.8, "Setting frame
frequency for LCD driver".
Use the LCD frame frequency source clock select
register FRMCS to select the source clock. When
FRMCS is set to "0", f

OSC1

is selected, and when it is

set to "1", programmable timer 5 is selected. The
following shows the frame frequencies when f

OSC1

is selected (f

OSC1

= 32.768 kHz).

1/8 duty:

64 Hz

1/16 duty: 32 Hz
1/32 duty: 32 Hz

5.11.4 Switching drive duty

The S1C88650 supports three types of LCD drive
duty settings, 1/8, 1/16 and 1/32, and it can be
switched using the LDUTY0 and LDUTY1 registers.
Table 5.11.4.1 shows the relationship of the LDUTY
setting, drive duty and the maximum number of
displaying dots.
When 1/32 duty is selected, an LCD panel with 126
segments

×

32 commons (maximum 4,032 dots) can

be driven.
When 1/16 duty is selected, an LCD panel with 126
segments

×

16 commons (maximum 2,016 dots) can

be driven. The COM16–COM31 terminals become
invalid, in that they always output an OFF signal.
When 1/8 duty is selected, an LCD panel with 126
segments

×

8 commons (maximum 1,008 dots) can

be driven. The COM8–COM31 terminals become
invalid, in that they always output an OFF signal.

The drive bias is 1/5 (five potentials, V

C1

, V

C2,

V

C3,

V

C4

and V

C5

) regardless of the drive duty selected.

The respective drive waveforms are shown in
Figures 5.11.4.1 to 5.11.4.3.
